Felipe,
It is very easy to post -- If your logger supports it, it is simple. The
posting process is the same for both sites.
What do you mean by "Hiding the operation progress?" Do you mean, don't
post because people will see scores?
Or do you mean Hide part of your results? You are free to not post
multipliers if you do not want to.
I know many in SA have enjoyed using the site. Also, it has been very
active in domestic contests here
in the US.
Pete correctly points out that the site went through some troubled times.
However, it was been operating
flawlessly for a long time now.
The aggregated data gathered by getscores is available to anyone who wants
it... If it available at:
http://www.getscores.org/scores/results.xml, and is updated every 10
minutes. Any website is welcome to
use the data to display these results in any manner they wish.
The idea behind getscores.org is to gather the data...The default grid I
display is simply one way of showing
the data.
Just checked -- there are currently 15 stations posting scores (today or
yesterday's date) and there is
no major contest going on.
BTW, the site does not filter the CABRILLO contest type... and, it's so
easy to post with programs like
N1MM, that people post their DX and other non-contest data. You can simply
filter that out.
